A resurfaced interview of Google co-founder Sergey Brin detailed his dramatic journey from the Soviet Union to Silicon Valley — a background that has led him to oppose California’s proposed billionaire tax. Brin broke his silence in a New York Times report Monday on why he’s pouring money into campaigns to stop the tax proposal, which will be up in front of voters this November. “I fled socialism with my family in 1979 and know the devastating, oppressive society it created in the Soviet Union,” the tech figure worth $260 billion said.
